Islamist suicide plot to assassinate Prime Minister Theresa May foiled

I don't think I've ever seen so many deleted posts for t&c violations on the first page of a thread ever.

Stay classy ATS.

That was me.

Sorry about that, maybe just don't read the deleted comments and carry on like you have no idea what they said.

The ones who “foiled” the “plot” probably planned it as well.

Convenient timing too, because in the last week it was announced that there was ample opportunity to prevent the Manchester bombing.

I’d trade those children for a politician in an instant.

Is anyone surprised? These idiots immigrate to the west just to try to make the west like the 3rd world #hole that they came from.

Is the OP racist.

I think we should be able to discuss terrorist plots and them occuring or being foiled regardless of the rleigious beliefs or ethnicity of those committing the terrorism.

I think that situations such as rotherham show that there is a danger in censoring crimes to remain PC.

Except that 99% of the terror attacks that happen on earth are commuted by a people of a specific religion

I'm reading again what Grambler said and still don't understand why you had such a reaction, it's like you were mad because the Islamist suicide plot wasn't successful.

I' will not go into it too much as it will just get removed and I will likley get banned for speaking my mind but I tend to find that all these threads just end up as free for alls where instead of talking about the subject in question it's just lots of one liner comments about "sorting them all out" or "kicking them all out" or whatever, pointless other than to allow people to have a quick racist rant under the guise of caring.

Theresa May is pretty much dispised by all as a leader in the UK even her own party know she has made an arse of things so why anyone thinks an attack on her would be a victory is baffling to me even.

The threat of real terror from the IRA years ago means security around her is so high that so an improvised (ie; crappy internet instructions) bomb thrown was never likley to be sucessfull anyway.

I think this is not about the thread, I think you probably had a bad day. I wish I could toss you a nice cold beer.

I dont thnk it should matter at all who the person was (I get it heads of state are important) but the fact that it was stopped should be whats being celebrated here, all the other partisan BS is just deflection.

what youre doing right now, and goading the poster to repeat what he said, effectively earning another post removal

Im always amazed at how little common sense seems to be available.

Wouldn't that make them a hero to the country though?

That would have huge ramifications for how the country would view and support them.

This statement makes me ponder a question...

Was the plot of Revolutionary measures to foster an uprising or was it a plan derived from an ISIS-like ideology?
Probably the latter.
But I don’t think we’d ever get a truthful answer if it was the former.

Made up statistics to go along with your initial immigrant blaming (they were British)...
Can’t say that isn’t predictable.

Not had a bad day buddy but thanks for the concern

I just get irritated about the attention these incidents get.

A couple of deluded kids get radicalised and come up with a terrible plan to commit terrorism and get caught.

Then the authorities release a statement and everyone gets there knickers in a twist and starts getting all exited and making outlandish statements and calling for all kinds of extreme measures to deal with something that is not really a threat.

It is absurd.

Iy is also used to push political agenda and I do not like it when the government does this, it is immoral.

That implies that only one percent of terrorists are non religious?

Could be true, maybe they will provide a link assuming that they meant any religion at all and not that religion.........

In an attempt at a productive conversation...

It seems like many of thyese attacks occur from second or third generation Muslims as opposed to immigrants.

Is there some appeal to targeting the children of happy peace loving Muslims in an attempt to radicalize them?

Is this a bigger threat than refugees and immigrants?

I think these are all real conversations we need to haev in order to start trying to prevent this type of extremism.

Trying to murder a political leader or anyone else is immoral.

Discussing that event is not.

We tried this on the first page remember?

Try to keep on topic in your own thread mate eh?

Now what else do you have to add regarding the events in the link you provided?

Was this because of the UK's "wars of aggression" in the Middle East?

Oh wait, that's the excuse for attacks in the US.

a reply to: Grambler

Is there some appeal to targeting the children of happy peace loving Muslims in an attempt to radicalize them?

I would say so, definitely. The young are more susceptible to being influenced. This is a well known fact of life.

Is this a bigger threat than refugees and immigrants?

Again, in my opinion, definitely.
The majority of refugees and immigrants are either fleeing this bullsh*t in the first place or coming to prosper economically and have no interest in terrorism.

I certainly wouldn’t say all of them fit the bill, but I’m confident in saying there is more chance of terror coming from homegrown persons than people from abroad.

Maybe. Maybe not.

I would point out that going after the people behind the wars like Theresa May, instead of innocent members of the public, is probably one of the times that argument may be legitimate, even if still unjustifiable.
